A Bird (formerly MessageBird) Case Study

Preview of the Al Jazeera Case Study

Al Jazeera’s fact-checking agency resolves 20% of requests automatically via WhatsApp

Al Jazeera partnered with Bird (formerly MessageBird) to address the high volume of daily fact-checking requests its verification agency receives via WhatsApp. Manual review was struggling to keep up with the amount of misinformation and incoming claims.

Bird implemented an AI fact-checking agent integrated with WhatsApp, using Bird’s AI platform to compare submitted claims against Al Jazeera’s verified database and escalate complex cases to human fact-checkers with AI-prepared context. As a result, Al Jazeera now resolves 20% of fact-checking requests automatically, with faster response times and more efficient use of human expertise.
